I just found that some of the questions were worded weird.

Yeah, roger that. The one about traditions as a guide, and the one about raising kids to the standards of society are two that come to mind as problematic. The society's standards question, in particular irked me, because -- as a parent -- I'd certainly like to raise my kids to standards FAR above those held by "society", but it's implicit in the wording of the question that the author feels society sets the bar for standards; a laughable notion, if ever there were one.

Yes, those were two that didn’t have an answer I liked. There were also some that said, “Does it bother you ... (something)?” to which my answer is, “It doesn’t *bother* me if other people do things I think are hawg-stupid, but that doesn’t keep them from being stupid.”
